Freedom to Ride on Four Different Mountains
Gamers have their choice of four mountains — Alaska, Park City, Europe (Alps), and Japan — each offering a different kind of terrain and feel, as well as landscapes and views. Alaska, for example, has a lot of peak boarding with features such as avalanches and ice chasms. Park City, the famed resort in Utah, features buildings and layouts from the actual resort.
The mountains are huge, with incredible graphics that allow you to see dynamic elements up to 20 miles away. As you ski, objects and locations far away in the space, such as the base of the mountain, become larger and larger, and the social class has the feel of a real, live environment rather than a static image.
Within each mountain, there are peak, back country, and park (resort) areas that grant a variety of gameplay. Just as you would expect, there are plenty of trails on each mountain, with each slope rated from green circle (simple) to double black diamond (extremely hard).
Race, Do Tricks, Carve New Paths
Shaun White Snowboarding lets you do anything you want at a mountain: you can alacrity down the fastest slopes, get massive air and do tricks on the half-pipe, and even throw snowballs at other boarders.
By using a combination of the right analog stick and left trigger, you can go a ton of different tricks on the ground, in the air, and on rails. The game was designed with realistic physics, so each trick looks and performs just as you’d expect it to see it in real life.
While you go down a mountain, you’ll see various challenges scattered by the side of the way, such as grinding on rails or specific tricks on the half-pipe.
When you get to the bottom, you can take off your penetrate and hop on a preside over or a helicopter to get back to the top and find a new trail.
In the release player mode, Shaun White serves as your mentor as you complete different challenges and competitions until you become excellent enough to place your skills up against Shaun White himself.
Share the Mountain with Other Online Players
Shaun White Snowboarding also features online multiplayer gameplay. Players can make their own challenges and participate with other online boarders, compete in half-pipe competitions, and even battle it out in straight racing down a trail. With mountains populated by real gamers, you’ll feel like you’re really out there on the slopes. A project feature is the video camera that lets you film other boarders doing tricks and upload them for everyone to see.
As you win competitions and do challenges, you earn cash that can be used to buy new apparel, boards, bindings, and more — all designed to make your character unique and your gaming experience more fun.
Perhaps one of the most satisfying things you can do is hurl a snowball at another player and talk a small trash afterwards.

This game is Shovel-ware – a game made for making a buck’s sake. Horrible – There is a 4 year ancient game called SSX which blows this game away. This game was made for the S. White brand to make a quick buck – I guess they dont know that making garbage and putting your name on it – Reduces your brand regard long term.

When I bought this game, i was looking for a fun snowboard game, since I had the trilogy of ssx on PS2 and had a lot of fun with them, I wanted to feel the same with similar game on ps3…so i chose to try this one despite the terrible reviews it got. but when i received it and played it, i felt automatically bored, it wasn’t fun, the graphic was gorgeous but the tale and the game’s commands felt too irritating. 2 hours later i was done playing it and returned it to amazon. maybe some found and find it excellent but for me I reflect that it has no regard for a player.

One of the best parts of this game is the fact that it is free-roaming; you can do what you want, when you want. This is much like EA skate but for snowboarding. The game is not as polished as EA skate, but it still a splendid, fun game.

I got it for Christmas, excited to finally have a snowboarind game on the PS3. I sold my 360 to get a PS3 before long after buying Amped 2. This game can not even stand in the same category as Amped 1 or 2. In Amped 2, the physics felt splendid, the hang time was enjoyable and the trick engine was honestly simple to get use to. The physics in this game are absolutely dreadful! You jump off a cliff, fall at what seems like 500mph, and then come slamming to a horribly screeching halt when you near the ground…and then get some eerie reverb hiccup before you start riding again. It feels so clumsy. I always saw Amped as trying to be a boarding simulator with outrageous airs and SSX as a more arcade stylishness, but exhilarating boarding experience…this game does neither, it just pisses you off. I would pass, all the way. Here’s still hoping for a decent PS3 game!
